How Private is Dash PrivateSend?

Warning: DASH privacy is worse than Bitcoin
https://steemit.com/bitcoin/@dnaleor/warning-dash-privacy-is-worse-than-bitcoin

Whoever wrote that DASH privacy article obviously biased against DASH. Thats a pretty absurd risk - that the NSA is going to demand a masternode log from a cloud provider and actually be able to decipher whats in it. First of all, we dont even have masternode mixing being logged, you have to enable certain debug switches (debug=true, debugmaster=true), second, you have to export logs regularly before they pass the pruning threshhold, third, I highly doubt the NSA is going to monitor Sanctuaries from Vultr and successfully get the log (even if it had something in it), so that risk is pretty absurd. Out of 84 sanctuaries in our small community, one wouldnt even know which sanc log to look for.

I read in a comment that the guy who wrote that steemit article was handing out Monero ads at a meeting where Evan Duffield was speaking LOL
Whats also interesting is that fluffypony of Monero is in the comments.

I have gotten a little more paranoid, with latest CPU memory bugs in the news, and from watching two Snowden documentaries over the holiday break LOL

===

Im trying to test PrivateSend now, but it seems like I can only put 2000 BiblePay as highest number for mixing.
This seems to be where you set how many coins you want to mix:

Settings >> Options >> Wallet >> Amount of BiblePay to keep anonymized

It looks like 2000 is set as maximum number in the GUI
https://github.com/biblepay/biblepay/blob/fd8db16748a8ae1e38d7bda5692353be00a14918/src/qt/forms/optionsdialog.ui#L266

Looks like there might be a command line option
https://github.com/biblepay/biblepay/blob/853affd8c070bfbfd8069abd4e4e8fc83f30afb9/src/init.cpp#L687

Basically my goal is to keep myself anonymous with the coins I was funded from the 1st superblock,
and if I ever wanted to send someone coins for payment for work or if I ever wanted to put up a public donation address, etc

===

UPDATE: I was able to add this to the biblepay.conf:

privatesendamount=1550001

and it showed in Amount and Rounds: 999999 BIBLEPAY
is that the max limit of coins you can mix in the code?

Can mixed coins be used to fund a Sanctuary?

just theoreticaly, if i start own pool from sources on github, will it be same as rob's pool? with all features, links, menus etc.. ?

yes, just no pool fee and orphan fee

Have you heard of an orphaned block? Its a block that was mined on a fork.

LOL.

Well, very clever if you use Religion to run a project. I think this project will definitely succeed, because in the world, religious people are very much. I want to ask, who are the people in this Biblepay team? thank yo

Well I think many have tried before, but they tended to be greedy (IE they had evil intentions), they premined, they promised Godly blessings for users - things that have nothing to do with Jesus. We are simply saying let us help you find the Gospel, because its in the source code, let us give credit to Jesus for helping orphans, let us be a blessing by attracting compassionate investors.

And, I believe we will have a team that delivers the goods technically speaking.

The bio page is not ready yet, but we have two web devs, one full time core developer, one part time core dev, and a couple c# volunteers. We have two for charity integration, and Togo is our full time social media manager (or, whatever he wants to be). Im still in the process of creating a slack team.

Congrats for passing superblock!
Ok guys we lost too much blocks with pool and block hitting is very inconsitent, sometimes we hit 5-6 in a row then couple hours nothing. I'm not sure what the problem can be? do we have that much solo miners? or is there a secret pool somewhere ?

I have exactly the same concerns ... Rob, please explain: if I built my pool, can I run it without asking anyone, or do I have to register it somewhere?

I see someone answered - no you can run it alone, but you have to attract enough people to mine in it to solve blocks.

If you only have say 10 miners, it could take a week to solve a block, but as long as they are all patient miners, the shares will finally be split among the miners.

hi all, my windows wallet (1.7.0.6) is not connecting to any node right now - this worked fine this morning. In my config file I've got the following:

addnode=node.biblepay.org
addnode=dnsseed.biblepay-explorer.org

...and other settings.

The status just sticks to: Synchronizing with network... and there are 0 active connections. Tried telnet node.biblepay.org 40000 and it worked fine.

Any ideas? Thanks in advance

Please ensure your system time and timezone is correct.

I see that several people have been trying to attach pictures to letters over the last 10 days, and apparently that has been broken since the day someone tried to upload a virus into the orphan letter, so we started blocking anything other than jpg and png files, and that apparently broke the uploader.

Alright, this is fixed now, anyone who wants to attach an image to a letter you already wrote, please click the letter, upload the picture and re-save the letter. (You should have been receiving a broken link til today when viewing the letter).

EDIT: Rocky pointed out that someone also downvoted every letter. We obviously have some jealous people working from the inside of the pool.

Anyone who wants, can make own pool. Source is on biblepay github. But no one knows how many "private" pools exists. There is only one public known pool except the official one: https://minersofmen.com/. But it is without miners since 27.12.

“The Future of Security Tokens”

BiblePay has got a very interesting roadmap. Looks like the marketing will kick in very soon and I guess it will attract more investors!

Can I trade this coin or just mine? I'm interested in this coin because of the good will it has to offer "10% goes to the charities".

So achieving the superblock at 24600 was a major milestone for us to show that we are doing what we say we are doing, and this keeps us on track with our roadmap goals.

We are becoming more decentralized as a decentralized autonomous charity, and do not have a single point of failure any longer.

If the primary pool were to fail, a new dev could step in and create a backup pool for example. If I were to dissapear, someone could step in and make the superblock payment to compassion.com, for example. Compassion has a department called ciqueue, which does support transferring orphans from one organization to another (and Biblepay's orphans are now registered under the "BIBLEPAY" Organization).

Over the next 30 days I am going to work on pulling in a few more blockchain devs, so we can focus on: Merging bitcoin code into our testnet branch (Possibly segwit), Merging security commits, Merging dash-evolution, and starting a new testnet round. In parallel, Im in talks with c# devs about our two Stratis projects: Stratis biblepay node and Stratis biblepay Gui. These are proofs of concept to prove that biblepay can sync in c# with the Stratis core, and the other is a Windows c# wallet that speaks through the RPC but looks/feels like a QT wallet. Im going to set a very agressive deadline in order to attempt to release an alpha version of biblepay-stratis by June 2018.

I read that all of the bitcoin debit cards were recently frozen due to a Visa bylaws violation. We will have to find if this is just temporary or if they found a new provider.

Congrats Rob! BiblePay would not exist without you, your years of experience and your hard work! Ill keep helping as much as I can!
BiblePay has a very bright future!

Thanks, well I think everyone here should give you a pat on the back for all the social media work you have been doing behind the scenes and all the reddit support, and meeting with April in person etc. I'm sure this takes 20 hours a week to respond to all of these feeds, as I realize how much e-mail bogs us down, and thats without the forum posts.

Great Job Togo!

Some day maybe we will have a BiblePay office to fly to and meet each other.
